It looks so awkward it looks like it might pull a wheelie. That Escort does look interesting. A cab too.

Probably due to the fact its not a standard f40 but one thats been breathed on, I spy LM intercoolers and lots of other race bits so no doubt a heavy duty clutch as well.

That supercharger on the Mk 3 isn't off a Spitfire, they used a centrifugal suopercharger, that one is a Roots or Lysholm type.
